4th July

Hot and Smokey that was our July 4th! We had family and friends over for a cookout and of course we swam in the pool, great way to keep cool.

Sydney was dressed for the occasion so we just had to snap a picture or two.
The smokey part of the 4th has been going on for a while it started with a forest fire in North Carolina, (we are 10 mins from the state line) then a fire broke out in the dismal swamp and has been smoldering for ever...I feel like we are on a permanent camping trip every morning we are greeted by the smell of campfires except its the cypress stumps smoldering in the swamp, and last night a new one broke out a little too close to home over on Ballahack Road, that's way too close, Chris and Kandice when they left here last night went out to check it out and so did Charlie. We need a really good downpour as much as I hate to say it, one that lasts for a few days, this is out 2nd year of drought.
